'''TrustFire R5-A3''' 1xAA 3-mode light with a Cree XP-G R5 and tail clicky, [http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.39062~r.72863811 $14.90] at DealExtreme, [http://www.kaidomain.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductID=10582&AffiliateId=1890 $14.70] at KaiDomain, or [http://www.manafont.com/product_info.php/trustfire-r5a3-3mode-memory-led-flashlight-1aa-p-5498?rp=75393 $17.60] at Manafont. Modes are High, Low (early versions had more of a Medium than Low), and Strobe. Also works with lithium-ion batteries, but the R5 should be quite bright on a single AA NiMH. Though not for a beginner, some soldering on the driver can convert this light to 3 non-flashing modes (described [http://budgetlightforum.com/node/2418 here]). | '''TrustFire R5-A3''' 1xAA 3-mode light with a Cree XP-G R5 and tail clicky, [http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.39062~r.72863811 $14.90] at DealExtreme, [http://www.kaidomain.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductID=10582&AffiliateId=1890 $14.70] at KaiDomain, or [http://www.manafont.com/product_info.php/trustfire-r5a3-3mode-memory-led-flashlight-1aa-p-5498?rp=75393 $17.60] at Manafont.
